Beautiful flowers,
Moses; is like Roses,
Lilac; that’s Meshach,
Abednego; like Solidago,
Hibiscus; that’s Paul of Tarsus,
And mountain Laurel is for Daniel,
These all were beautiful flowers in the Creator’s sight.

Beautiful flowers,
Philip; is like Tulip,
Aster; that’s Esther,
And Peter; like Hosta,
Jasmine; that’s Stephen,
And Gerbera is for Deborah,
These all were beautiful flowers in the Creator’s sight.

Beautiful flower,
Be honest and thoughtful,
Be loyal to God and be faithful
Love Him and your neighbour too,
Be obedient, be brave and gentle,
Have faith even in the face of trouble,
Then you’ll be a beautiful flower in the Creator’s sight.
